Mt. Rose - Upper Northwest to Kit Carson to Ponderosa

Описание: Upper Northwest to Kit Carson to Ponderosa is an intermediate ski run located at Mt. Rose - Ski Tahoe. The trails run from the summit of the Northwest Express chairlift down to the Main Lodge. The run begins on Upper Northwest, a short and gentle trail that runs just to the skier's right of the top of the chairlift before arriving at an intersection. Here, I stayed to the left to ski onto Kit Carson Traverse, which cuts across the top of the mountain. Just after passing underneath the Lakeview Express chairlift, I turned right onto Kit Carson Bowl, a wide-open trail that runs straight down the mountain before merging onto Ponderosa. Ponderosa gently runs along the bottom of the mountain before arriving at the bottom of the Northwest Express near the Main Lodge.
